Killing time Aug 1, 2008
imageWhilst I'm away from a computer most of the day (in three hours I leave the house, I've got a one hour journey to work, seven hours actual work, and a five hour coach journey) I won't be saying a hell of a lot. however, for all of those of you playing in games, but waiting a long time for people to speak up, here's a link to a whole bunch of animations that will kill time:

Alternatively you can talk to my online artificially intelligence clone, and pretend it's me:

Just let me know what 'I' have been saying, just so I can make my apologies... :-)

New day, new game! Jul 30, 2008
Well, straight from one to another. Mostly new people, plus a couple of old familiar faces. Old, of course, being relative.

Today, online, I've spent a lot of time playing games. And have spent a short while being an agony uncle. Or possibly a big brother, which is more apt.

Will keep my avatar this way until I get re-nominated. I'm hoping to get a little further than 8th place this time.

Anyhow, time for bed.

8th... Jul 30, 2008
Got to say, I wasn't too surprised. A bit, but not much.

I'd kind of worked out there were three kinds of people.

1. Those you just didn't talk enough with (or even see) to make a judgement call on.

2. Those who you could trust.

3. Those who were damn nice and chatty but actually were in it to win.

I noted a few negative scores creeping in when I was away from the computer, but the only person who'd been online was the guy I'd previously been talking to. Still, it's just a game, huh?

I'll try another game - someone seems to be screaming for them. I'm just going to maybe keep my trap shut more.

At least I had the chance to change into my nomination outfit.

Another night... Jul 29, 2008
image...another nomination.

And so I've dressed myself up and put on a mock-shock expression.

In other news it was great to see nearly everyone going up for nomination on tonight's Big Brother. In other other news I've been sticking lots of my pictures online, so I'll stick one of them here. In the final piece of news I'm going to bed now. Goodnight!

Long long day... Jul 28, 2008
In real life, that hazy world this side of the computer screen, I've had a long day. At 8.30 this morning I caught a coach to London, arriving just after 1.00. I wandered around town in the scorching heat, carrying a bag of clothes and a portfolio of work (and a handful of books), until 3.00 when I was due to start work. Sat in a design studio for another five hours, then was told I didn't have to stick around til 10.00 and could go home. finally got home at about 9.00, ate a microwave meal, and finally got online to check out whether I'd been nominated. I had.

Two stand out things in this long day.

1. Read a book on the coach down, by Robert Rankin. He's an aquired taste, but I've aquired it somewhere down the line and don't see to be abe to shake it loose. The book, Fandom of the Operator, is about a guy called Gary Cheese, with an unnatural attraction to the dead. Weird story, but entertaining.

2. Just watched UK Big Brother, where 'the housemates from heaven' got to see the pre-going-in videotapes of 'the housemates from hell' - I'm just wound up by Rex, who has some disturbing vendetta against Rachel, because he thinks she's fake (and can't fathom how she might be all bubbly and chatty on tape, and a little more cautionary in the flesh). I don't know, I think he's a horrid piece of work.

Tomorrow I'll have a bit more online time. Should be able to get a bit of music time courtesy of www.last.fm - I've been missing my music, and it's something that's a big part of my life. I guess I expected Tengaged to get people discussing music, books, films, pets, 'stuff' a bit more. Maybe it's not really about that. or maybe I need to start the ball rolling.

Ah well. Goodnight.

Getting to know you, getting to know all about you... Jul 27, 2008
Sing along if you know the words... :-)

So, it's been just over 24 hours, and I haven't been nominated. That's a plus. But what do I know about the others so far? From their individual pages, and scrolling through a few of the game pages, I've learnt the following:

sunny2008 - started the game, don't know much more than that.

Isaaccc - up for nomination, don't know much more than that.

cool - awesomely awesome (apparently). We've talked a little bit, so there's been some positive interaction there, but still not that clued up.

Lucas - has a blog that I can't open, is 16, is based in West Harrison, New York but comes from Brazil, don't know much more than that.

AVATAR1 - up for nomination, has an icon with a mask on, which could mean all sorts of things, but don't actually know any more than that.

Nathaniel - has a short bio and a neat looking blog. Haven't really talked but sounds a cool character.

Neyo - someone from Hastings who loves big-brother and football. Have talked a little, sounds decent.

Hingedbod - got lots of Tengaged blogs, lives in the south west of the UK, writes a fair bit and might ocassionaly do so when drunk. Encouraged me to join the game through his writing, and answered a few questions when I joined. Helpful and friendly.

Johnnyy - another nominated guy, but who hasn't played before. He's 18. He lives in Manchester, UK. And has an icon in pink. That's not much to know about someone, but it's something.

That's all for now.
